Interesting.
Both wearing their splinter pattern Zeltbahn's as well, as camo smocks.
Staged photo I would guess given that the guy in the left background seems to be siting in Feldgrau uniform looking over at them.
I would think so...Quote:

It looks like a good photo for a firearms safety poster. Don't shoot your buddy in the chest with a .303 from 12 inches away! Salt Flat
I'm sure that that is a still taken from the wartime training film 'I am a sniper'. They were using British weapons doctored to look like the enemy. I could be wrong. I contacted the British Film Archive who took over all the old War Office training films from the old AKC and they don't have it. Anyone out there remember the AKC....., Roy?
Thought it didn't look quite right Peter...
Certainly a still as opposed to a photograph, looks that way anyway..
I know what KFC is, if that helps?Quote:
